Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup grated cheddar (about 30 g)
- 1/4 cup grated Pepper Jack cheese (about 30 g)
- 1/4 cup frozen corn kernels
- 1/8 tsp ground cumin

Preparation:
- Preheat the grill to high heat. In a medium bowl, combine all the cheese, corn, cumin, garlic, bell pepper, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and a few grinds of black pepper.
- Place one tortilla in the quesadilla grill basket. Sprinkle the cheese mixture over the top, leaving a 0.5 cm (1/4 inch) border. Place a second tortilla on top, then close the basket according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- Place the quesadilla on the grill rack, cover, and cook until the cheese is just beginning to melt and the tortilla is golden brown on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn the rack over and continue cooking until the cheese is completely melted and the tortilla is golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes.
